South Brooklyn Running Club
Brooklyn · Carroll Gardens, Cobble Hill, Red Hook
The vibe
South Brooklyn Running Club is a free, unpretentious community based in Cobble Hill, Carroll Gardens, and Red Hook that runs everything from 6:45am Tuesday track sessions at Red Hook Park to leisurely Friday coffee runs that end at a different neighborhood shop each week. Pace ranges from 5:45 min/mile speedwork to beginner-friendly 10:30 min/mile loops, with frequent regroups built in — as their FAQ puts it, 'just come on out' and wear shorts and sneakers. Post-run drinks at Vekslers (where a draft is ) are as much a tradition as the miles, and the club actively centers BIPOC runners with anti-racism training and community partnerships baked into their guidelines. No cost, no gatekeeping.
